I enjoyed playing through the remaster on PC. But after 100%ing the game, any time I’ve felt like playing it I just end up running the international version in an emulator.

As for why they’re getting downvoted, criticizing cars or the use of cars tends to get a lot of negative feedback.

I loved Anarchy Online back in the day. I don’t think I ever did anything particularly in depth on it, but I remember being proud that I had an in game apartment and a flying car thing.

I haven’t noticed a huge difference between NetherSX2 classic and 3668, but the only thing I’ve been playing is FFX International. Both play it just fine on my device (Moto One 5G Ace running LineageOS).

While unfortunate, it’s not difficult to still run AetherSX2 or its successor, NetherSX2. There was some drama around the Play Store version of AetherSX2 anyway. The Play Store version had ads.

If you want to run an older version of AetherSX2, I recommend v1.5-3668. I believe that is the last version before ads were added. It is missing some performance improvements though. At this point you would have to find an APK of it to install manually.

What I really recommend is to use NetherSX2, which is the successor to AetherSX2. There are two versions, Classic and Modern. Classic is generally the better performer unless you want to run certain games - specifically snowblind engine games (Baldur’s Gate, Champions of Norrath). You just download the patcher from github, download an APK of AetherSX2, run the patcher, and copy/install the resulting APK file.

I have a Steam deck, so I have used it for a lot of emulation. I’ve actually been playing on my phone lately. I bought a USB-C controller that holds my phone. Using Retroarch for most older stuff, but I have the following emulators installed separately:

Aethersx2 for PS2

Dolphin for GC/Wii

Citra for 3DS

Duckstation for PS1

Vita3k for PS Vita

Risking sounding like a broken record, I always suggest Tiny/Mini/Micro 1L form factor office PCs. Lenovo, Dell, and HP all create ultra small office PCs that make great low power servers. A Pi will use 5-9w at idle, while these PCs will use 11-13w idle. They also use more standard components such as NVME drives, 2.5" drives, and replaceable RAM. Easy to find under $100 USD used, I’m sure you can find them under 100 euro.

Collaboration is important and a key part of sustaining a culture with your peers, with your colleagues," Tan added.

BS. Collaboration does not require people to physically occupy the same space. It does require communication though, which happens quite easily thanks to the internet.

This is just an excuse to get rid of people or to fill empty offices to appease money hungry property owners.

I totally missed that you have an uncontainerized service. Can you run the service directly on the hardware host (safely)? If so, here’s how I would probably run it considering your memory constraints:

1. Install Debian
2. Set up the uncontainerized service directly on the host.
3. Install Docker directly on the host as well.
4. Spin up the containers for everything else.

Not the cleanest/most separated answer but it would reduce the memory load of additional layers of host/VM/containers. If this isn’t storing any sensitive data or being directly exposed to the internet that should be fine.

If you are dealing with sensitive data or exposing to the internet, I would consider your original plan of Proxmox VMs to separate everything but see if you can add additional RAM to help. Also consider installing something like fail2ban on every host and VM.

The containers in Proxmox (LXC Containers) are a little different from Docker containers. You can’t deploy Docker containers directly as LXC containers. You can, however, run an LXC container and install Docker on it, then run Docker containers there.

In your scenario I don’t think I’d use Proxmox as you’re going to run into issues with lack of RAM. I think you’re going to have issues running out of memory either way though. Running the whole machine as a Docker node would probably be more memory-efficient than having the overhead of running separate VMs under Proxmox.

NGINX should run fine as a container. There’s even an official build available on Docker Hub.

This is the first time I’ve heard of this, thanks! Looks like a good addition to my homelab.
